To Die For!

Okay, so I know I promised more pictures of Africa...and I will get to those I really will! But I just HAD to post these adorable pictures of Elsie from her one year photo shoot with Megan. They are soooooo cute. I love every single one of them. Megan has a way of capturing the most precious moments perfectly.
I love this bright pink background!


Just a little advice for you parents who have a child turning one soon...if you want the cake eating to be a success, give your child a trial run the night before the big day...Elsie had already dove into one cake at her little birthday party and so the minute this one was placed in front of her she just dove right in. She knew what to do this time! I seriously can't get over the candle in her mouth! So hilarious and so Elsie.

I even love her little foot in this one (below)! And the look on her face is priceless!
And finally a smile from my little fireball!! I was seriously sweating from jumping around and trying to get her to smile. We don't call her our little stinkbug for nothing:)
And a little side-note on Elsie...her one year stats are as follows:
Length: 30 3/4 inches (92%)
Weight:22 lbs. (75%) Funny thing about this...since she was nine months old, she has gained only 1 ounce. Isn't that crazy? 1 ounce? Good thing she has lots of reserve built up:)
Head circumference: Why didn't I write this number down? Anyway it's around the 50%
